DIN2174 HSSE‑Co5% Forming Tap is a non‑chip roll tap manufactured per DIN2174 industry standard. Made of HSSE‑Co5% cobalt‑alloy high‑speed steel, this forming tap utilizes metal plastic deformation to extrude workpiece material and create internal threads, instead of removing material by cutting.
Built‑in oil groove structure optimizes coolant circulation during tapping process for effective lubrication and heat dissipation. TiCN functional coating improves surface hardness, abrasion resistance and anti‑adhesion performance, reduces built‑up edge. Formed threads obtain higher tensile strength compared with cutting tap. Widely applied on stainless steel, carbon steel and alloy steel for machine tapping.
